Compendium of Curiosities challenge is from Tim's book on p. 39
Tinting Grunge. Yes, grunge cuts beautifully using Tim's Alterations Dies and the Wizard. This grunge was cut from Baroque with the large keyhole. The distress inks used were pumice stone and rusty hinge. All of the stamps are from Tim's stamps and the background was embossed with one of Tim's texture fades on Core'dinations paper and then sanded. The key is from my stash. It's made of plexiglas and I used alcohol inks to colorize it. The word is from Cornish Heritage Farms stamps. This was another fun technique from Tim's Compendium of Curiosities book.
